A VPN stands for a ‘Virtual Private Network’ which is a network technology that creates a secure network connection over a public network such as the Internet. VPN technology uses sophisticated encryption to give security and prevent any unintentional interception of data between private sites. All traffic over a VPN is encrypted using algorithms to secure data integrity and privacy.

Why would I want a VPN ?

Have you ever tried to view a website such as BBCiplayer and been denied access because you are in the wrong country? With a VPN you are able to select your IP address so that you are in any country you wish. If you have a Sky HD box for example you can connect the receiver to a VPN router and enjoy Sky Go, BBCiplayer, ITVplayer, Demand5 and 4onDemand directly onto your tv.

VPN Routers
